I'm Lost

I'm lost

I wander mindlessly

Ignoring what I come across

Screaming silently

I wander mindlessly

Trying to find my way

Screaming silently

Darkness overcoming day

Trying to find my way

I try and try

Darkness overcoming day

Something creeps slowly by

I try and try

Ignoring what I come across

Something creeps slowly by

I'm lost.

I'm Lost

Ninth grade. I'm glad you explained that because I was worried about this piece in comparison to your others. Was going to say that it was too much like so many other works out there. That's the problem with poetry of a personal nature; everyone writes it and it is almost impossible to find a new way to describe. However, I have to tell you that my sixteen year old in tenth grade would probably appreciate ths poem. :) Wasn't ninth grade fun? ~ Ronda

yeah

Ninth grade was cool. We had a poetry and creative writing class. I appreciate it more now.

Hello asiajy,

If you take out the second "I wander mindlessly" line, I think you will have a good poem here... Keep writing! Always, Cat
